Unable to answer: I dont really know what is going on from limited details and history. It could be sleep apnea which is unusual in a 16 year old f., unless you are overweight or have other breathing problems. Could be related to other sleep disorders or simply to stress and anxiety. Best you have your general check you and refer as he/she deems necessary.Good luck.
